(4.1) Installing IVG dependencies
The IVG dependency install file installs all the OS requirements and dependencies required for IVG. The dependency installer performs the following steps:
- Runs prerequisite check to verify VM prerequisites are satisfied
- Verifies if IVG is installed. If IVG is installed, it displays a list of the installed components and exits.
- Installs OS requirements (/tmp mounting, umask settings, firewall configuration and host file configuration)
- Installs OS dependencies.
- Creates the ivg-installer-info.cfg which is the input file for IVG installer.
The file contains the dependency installer for:
- RHEL\CentOS 6.10
- RHEL\CentOS 7.7
- RHEL\CentOS 7.8
- RHEL\CentOS 7.9*
- For RHEL/CentOS 7.9, the prerequisite installer filename is ivg-4.1-dependencies-installer-linux79. You can use this installer to update OS dependencies for RHEL/CentOS 7.9 when using IVG 4.1.
- You must use the install_ivg.cfg configuration file generated by the IVG 4.1 Setup Wizard when running the dependencies installer for IVG 4.1 on RHEL/CentOS 7.9.
How to install IVG dependencies
Use the following instructions to install the IVG dependencies:
- Copy the ivg-dependencies-installer file to the first VM in your IVG deployment. The installer must be in the same directory as the install_ivg.cfg configuration file created by the IVG Setup Wizard.
- Enter the following command to change the permissions:
chmod a+x
ivg-dependencies-installer-
xxxx
- Enter the following command to execute the installer:
./
ivg-dependencies-installer-
xxxx
install
- Repeat Steps 1-3 on each VM in the IVG deployment.
After the dependencies are installed, the installer creates the ivg-installer-info.cfg which is used during IVG installation.
